The greatest danger to DO feared In tie
presence Of a shark is the paralysis Of
fear. Sharks unless very hungry will not
attack a man while in motion. Tho
swim around with longing eyes waiting
for one moment when their ~victIraa shall
remain quiet, and then make their on
slaught. On the coast of Africa tic re-
tives fight sharks fearlessly. They enter
the ocean naked, having first oiled their
bodies In order that they MAJ slide
through the water easily. Their only
weapon is q stout stick about two feet in
length sharpened at both ends. The
water is SO clear that they can 600 for
hundreds Of feet around then. When n
shark swims toward them they whit I'M
til the moment he turns on his back, and
as he opens his jaws to seize them they
thrust the stick crosswiss into his mouth
and swim of. The sharks mouth being
held open by the stick, he is soon drowned,
when the natives tow him ashore and
feast upon his lesh.-New York Mail and

There arc some curious cases among
the California geckos, " said q Los An
Gcles county naturalist. Hear is one
dead that is called the leaf tailed gecko.
You see the tail bulges out soon after
leaving the body and assumes a leaf of
arrow shape, hence the name Of the ami
NAL. Now when the little creature is
chased you will zee it dodge around a
limb and hold up the curious leaf Ike
tail. That is all that you can see, and sc
naturally would think 1t q part OF the
tree itself.
But this lizard has q more remarkable
method Of escape yet. We will imagine
that you have tried to pluck the leaf.
The animal drops clumsily to the ground
and darts away among the rocks, where
1t attracts the attention Of some OF the
hawks that are providing around. I'm
mediately q chase ensues; the bird gains
and is finally about to pounce upon its
prey, when all ut once two lizards APP
pear, one making off while the other
dances up and down into the air and
along the ground in n very mysteriou
way, 30 that the astonished bird stops an,
looks. In the meantime the original
lizard escapes; the other, that really ia
the tail, o becomes quiescent. You
see the gecko has the faculty Of throwing
of his tail when hard pressed. and while
the pursuer's attention is drawn to the
squirming member the animal itself es-
capes." But it loses its tail, sug-
gested the reporter. ''Only for a time.
They can reproduce this organ, and, curl
ously enough, sometimes two tails are
produced instead Of ore."-San Francisco

BEEcHER's pulpit in the Brooklyn tab
ernscle was fllrd last Sunday by the Rev
DR.. joseph Parker, a famous London
preacher who occupies a position IN Eng
lish religious circles almost as unique as
that 50 long aud ably filled by Plymouth,
famous pastor Whether or not DR..
Parker completely fills the shoes of the
lamented Beecher is a question that seems
left open for future consideration. The
members Of the congregation aceept
Beecher as the beau ideal pastor and of
course judge every other preacher BY his
standard. This is very unjust TO the
Aspirant for the vacant pulpit. In tenn
permanent aud genius DR. Parker is n rad
ically different man FROM Beechcr. He
lacks the nimble wit, the graceful humor,
the fine dJw OF animal Ipirits that fairly
irradiated every subject it touched and
threw an unctuous favor into every public
discourse But though a very different
stamp of mar from Beecher, DR.. Parker
is a preacher of powerful mentality and an
untlring worker who has lett the impress
of his genius on the everyday life of Lon
don and the English provincial own
That he should produce a wonderfully
favorable impression upon his first APP
pearance in Plymouth church clearly
demonstrates the caliber Of the man.

THERE are growing indications that the
tremendous boom which has prevailed in
California, especially the southern part,
is slowly but surely dying out. The iDev'
liable result one of these days is expected
TO be a collapse that will set the world
sgog like another South Sea bubble. A
correspondent speaking of the outlook
says: Some Of US made a calculation the
other day which Is startling. 1t is that,
taking the whole country between San
Diego and Sacramento. in which the
speculation has been most rampant, the

December, will foot up about S45. 00O. 900

appears to be- the expectation that East

4 LIE AKrRsIAN WE'LL CUES.
TION.

A correspondent writing from
Carson to the Enterprise against
the artesian well bill makes a Sc
ries of statements regarding wells
which cannot be substantiated. He
says that over 100 wells in this
county are flowing and all the water
will not irrigate an acre. This is
wholly untrue. Senator Stewart
has a well sunk only 100 feet which
supplies $4,000 gallons day. The
writer has one that is only 40 feet
deep and flows 10000 gallons day.
A flow of l6 gallons a minute on
Mr.. Cagwin's land In this city and
there are dozens Of other which
flow 10000 gallons a day. The
staten ent made in the Enterprise
by the anonymous correspondent
are wholly misleading. If he can
make any showing of facts against
the we'll bill why does he not go be
fore the Irrigation Committee aud
prove his wild assertions. He
seems opposed to irrigation schemes
of all kinds and claims that the
proposition of damming ravines Is
bad because dams break and en-
danger life and property. A man
of this kind would object to the
erection of bridges because bridges
are sometimes washed away and
loss of life results.

Mr.. Logan, of ours, has intro

yides that the State Board Of Edu-

Directors for the State Library.
Should this bill pass it will take
away from. the next Lieutenant
Governor the duties of Librarian.
The friends of the bill urge as
reasons fer its passage, that to a
certain extent it takes the Library
out of politics; it provides that, by
and with the approval of majority
OF the members of the Supreme
Court, this Board may exchange
old books or buy new books; it also
makes it the duty Of this Board to

GRADING PUBLIC LANDS.

Notice was gwen yesterday in
the Assembly of bill to appoint a
commission to grade the puolic
lands of Nevada. The present law
fixes the price Of all lands at .$1-25
an acre, and as the lands in this
State arc widely different in quail
ity it would seem that a graded
price would be better for all con-
cerned. Certainly the meadow
land and sagebrush land accessible
to water ought not to be sold for
$1.25 when the State could in time
realize $5, and barren mountain
land not worth over 25 cents an
acre will never sell for $l25. The
land question is one of great i'm
portance in this State and prop
erly appointed commission Of good,
practical men could so grade the
lands that the State could realize
the best possible price for good
land and get rid of the poor land at
any price.

Tha Lottery Gauxe

The Louisiana Lottery Drawings
may be squarely conducted, as
claimed, but there is one circnm-
stance that has always struck us as
being exceedingly queer, and con-
trary to the laws Of chance. We
know of one locality where, in the
course of two years, over 1900
tickets (coupons) were held. These
should have drawn 25 prizes, but,
instead of drawing their proportion,
they drew but four-three of them
small approximation prizes. We
know of another locality where, In
the same period, over 5000 tickets
were held. These should have
drawn oyer 100 prizes, but, as far
as we know, they drew but %, mostly
small approximation prizes; they
may have drawn few that we do
not know of, but not many. We
know of many similar cases, enough
in fact, to base calculations on, and
in no case within our knowledge
has any number of tickets drawn
its proportion of prizes, that is, one
in 40. The laws of chance are, in
the long run, inexorable, and we
think that our observations have
been extensive enough to warrant
the belief that, if squarely con-
Quoted, the proportion of prizes to
tickets held would be much larger
than it has been.-Ex.
Nevada should have q lottery of
her own, on the square.
